(NaturalNews) Vaccine-induced autoimmunity will be the undoing of civilization if it remains on the fringes of the national conversation concerning vaccination policy. More children than ever before now suffer from chronic health conditions that were virtually unheard of prior to the advent of vaccines, and yet few in the modern medical profession are willing to face this elephant in the room and say enough is enough.

Let's just be frank here for a moment: vaccines aren't "safe and effective" as is so-often claimed, and the scientific literature is replete with undeniable evidence that vaccine components are triggering a wave of health conditions that, depending upon an individual's unique genetic makeup, manifest as things like food allergies, multiple sclerosis, narcolepsy and various other chronic maladies.

The truth of the matter is that one in five Americans now suffers from one or more autoimmune conditions likely caused by vaccination. Autoimmune disease is now a leading killer of girls and young women. In fact, and 32 million American children, or some 43% of individuals under the age of 18, now suffer from one of 20 chronic illnesses, not including obesity.

Compared to their parents, children today are four times more likely to suffer from some form of chronic illness, and this statistical likelihood is constantly increasing. Roughly 25% of children today take one or more prescription drug regularly, and many struggle with inexplicable health afflictions like chronic fatigue and inflammatory bowel disease, not to mention gluten intolerance and Celiac disease, that leave them weak, frail and in some cases unable to function without constant care.

What's causing this massive increase in serious health conditions that, prior to about 50 years ago, were virtually nonexistent? A newly published medical textbook entitled Vaccines and Autoimmunity, published by the Wiley group, helps shed some light on this disastrous phenomenon, explaining how vaccine adjuvants destroy the human immune system by basically turning it on itself.

Vaccine adjuvants are a direct cause of autoimmune disease, and the medical profession has known this for decades

In a powerful piece highlighting the dark side of vaccines, independent journalist Celeste McGovern discusses the copious scientific research proving that vaccines are fully capable of inducing autoimmune disease, and often do. A collection of papers authored by more than 75 doctors and scientists well-versed in epidemiology, immunology and vaccinology, Vaccines and Autoimmunity blows the lid on the epidemic of autoimmune disease that clearly has its roots in the vaccination agenda.

"What is obvious is that a typical vaccine formulation contains all the necessary biochemical components to induce autoimmune manifestations," explain Yehuda Shoenfeld from Tel Aviv University in Israel and his colleagues in this extensive academic resource. "[O]ur major aim is to inform the medical community regarding the various autoimmune risks associated with different vaccines."

Referencing swine flu vaccine-induced narcolepsy as a baseline, McGovern uncovers the dark side of vaccines that you'll never hear about from the mainstream media. Just take a look at the following list of vaccine adjuvants, all of which are extensively referenced in Vaccines and Autoimmunity as inducing so-called "adjuvant's disease," or what we now know as autoimmune disease:

Such ingredients are generally regarded, though on an unsubstantiated basis, as safe by the mainstream medical profession. But Shoenfeld et al. provide ample evidence in their book suggesting otherwise, referring to vaccine adjuvants as "the 'dirty little secret' of immunologists" in one of their chapters. These adjuvants, they show, trigger a host of conditions, not the least of which is known as acute disseminated encephalomyelitis, or ADEM.

Sometimes referred to as atypical multiple sclerosis, ADEM is a demyelinating disease in which the immune system destroys the myelin sheath which protects the nerves. When this occurs, a host of debilitating conditions can ensue, including chronic nerve pain, speech disorders, paralysis, seizures and even blindness.

"The widespread use of vaccinations in recent years (including new types of influenza vaccines and vaccines against HPV ...) has caused an increase in reported cases of ADEM," write two neurologists in one of the chapters of Vaccines and Autoimmunity. "Severe, hyperacute and even lethal forms of ADEM do exist."

Why none of this is ever mentioned within the "vaccines are safe and effective" circles is beyond the realm of reason and common sense. Either these folks are so absurdly ignorant as to completely defy their own academic titles, or they're active participants in a massive coverup that's costing millions of children worldwide their health, and in some cases their lives.

"What is obvious from a read of Vaccines and Autoimmunity is that there are going to be some casualties in the Great Vaccine Blitz," comments McGovern. "Some kids are going to wind up in wheelchairs, some kids are going to have brain damage and some are going to die."

"We have been conditioned to accept the secular utilitarian view that the lives of some children must be sacrificed for the 'Greater Good' of protecting the 'herd;' at least it's 'rare.'"
